Hey Yuk Hui fans, how do you propose achieving ontological pluralism while tackling the question of technics at the same time?

Decentralization of power would have to be the prerequisite—a kind of unification via disunification, allowing many experiments to occur simultaneously.

It would also require accelerating human intuition alongside techno-acceleration. So how do you actually do that? I don’t have all the answers, but this is probably the right way to think about it:

Intent is the basis of free will, and intuition is the art of deciphering intent—whether someone else’s, your own, or Divine Intent. In an era where technology increasingly seeks to capture your intuition and render you simply a consuming commodity, the antidote must be “Intuitional Sovereignty”: your intention belongs to you alone. Perhaps virtual environments could sharpen intuitive abilities. We must be willing to use technology as a tool to achieve desired results without dependency.

It would certainly require a clear distinction between human and non-human, with rights for those who choose not to merge with machines at all or to lesser degrees, while setting criteria for an individual to be considered “non-human,” with restrictions rather than rights thereafter. This places responsibility squarely on the individual, as God intended. Restrictions on non-human entities would include clear communication methods to prevent subliminal influence, etc. Technological restriction on manipulating others or using abilities for nefarious purposes. Is that achievable, remains to be seen.

It would also mean creating technological infrastructure to protect intuitional footprints from capture in cyberspace. This leads back to the Network State and resolving digital ID and data sovereignty. No matter how we look at it, everything returns to sovereignty from centralization—monetarily, economically, technologically, intellectually, and most importantly, spiritually.
